Hey fellow arcade maniacs! I am 53, and 1st played arcade machines at age 10 in 1981. I lived near a pizza place, with tons of unique cool machines, in Landing NJ. I moved to Mass in 1983. We had a great arcade for many years at the Searstown Mall, in Leominster, MA. Now we have a super cool vintage arcade and pinball place called "Free Play Arcade" in Worcester, MA. I been collecting full sized games just this past year. Got a Centipede, Hang-On, Asteroids Deluxe, and two Pac-mans. My latest Pac-Man I paid $100, it was converted to a Golden Tee Jamma, and they hacked the sides into square openings. The artwork was ruined. Has a 19" K4600, mounted horizontally. Works great, but the width is to short. I am afraid to adjust the width coil due to it s fragile nature. Since it's got full Jamma wiring, I turned it into a Williams machine. Roboton is awesome on it. My other Pac-man the lady was giving away free, as she thought it was "broke". She had people lined up, but no one grabbed yet. I offered her $200 to be fair (and thats all I had at the time). It just needed CRT adjustments. Pretty much all original, except the CRT, which has almost zero burn in. No one could help me with a truck that morning, and I know it would be gone very quick, so I drove there in my Honda FIT. It fit by 1MM...haha. That was a great find. Stuff like that gets you hooked on collecting. Glad to be here!IMG_6364.jpeg
